Norfolk Naval Shipyard’s Pipefitter Shop (Shop 56) Pipefitter Philip White (right) trains Helper-to-Worker Jemonte Powell on a hose testing evolution. Powell has been at the shipyard for approximately two months. He is involved with the Helper-to-Worker Program that gives the individual on-the-job training. After Powell graduates from the three-year program, he will be developed into a WG-8 mechanic. “I knew college wasn’t for me at the time I needed to decide on what I want to do for a career,” said Powell. “I heard about the Helper-to-Worker Program and felt this was exactly what I was looking for. It’s been a good experience thus far and I am learning a lot.”
